  1. I play most days and have a pretty light touch, I set my basses up with a 2mm gap at the 12th fret so reasonably low, we do practise pretty hard and do pretty much go straight through the three hours, I think I can already tell a difference with the TIs but will have a better idea when we practise again (once everyone is back from their holidays!)

  2. Do higher tension strings cause pain /fatigue in your plucking hand, been using Labella FS which I love, but after a three hour session I'm finding I'm waking up in the night with wrist pain, going to try some old TI flats to see if they make any difference, love TIs too so not so bothered about the change.

  3. I had the Heritage B-15 and thought it had plenty of power, I moved it on because it was too awkward / heavy and precious to gig with, it was sat looking beautiful in my front room but wasted, I gigged it a couple of times in medium venues and it was fantastic, just far too precious to gig. I now have a Mesa walkabout 15 which is my main gigging amp, I'd say equally beautiful, more head room and far easier to transport.

  4. I now have a Tech 21 bass fly rig so this is no longer required, these are great compressors and easy to use. It got a few chips and missing one of the screws in the back but all works as it should, and delivered for £35 this is a steal...

  5. Last question re: shielding, I've done both and all looks good so far. Is it OK to put some electrical tape on the inside of the control cavity on top of the copper tape around where the jack is situated? Just in case the jack moves and comes into contact with the sides to prevent shorting??

  6. I just ordered one of these, should be arriving sometime next week. They look pretty smart and seem to get some good feedback, I like the fact that you just charge them up and they'll give you 4/5 hours, no batteries or additional power supply to mess about with and are tiny. I don't know much about latency figures but 6ms seems pretty low and people don't seem to notice any difference with cables. Not for use with active circuits though!
    I got the black version as I thought it looks less obtrusive, I shall update once it arrives.
